Linux 2.6.12.4

From: Chris Wright
Date: Fri Aug 05 2005 - 16:24:20 EST


We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.12.4 kernel.

The diffstat and short summary of the fixes are below.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.12.3 and 2.6.12.4, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.12.y git tree can be found at:
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chrisw/linux-2.6.12.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,
-chris
